City-Off: Stage Two

[Edu]

Haven't been to Melbourne (I heard good things from Hughento tough) and I only went to the Frankfurt airport.

On the other hand Alexandria is great in many ways and I enjoyed my time in Guatemala city, so...

3 for Guatemala City
1 for Alexandria

[Edu]

Easy one

3 for Budapest
1 for NYC

[Edu]

Though one, because I think Washington should reach the next round. But so should Casablanca and Berlin.

I'll go with the 2 cities I actually visited and enjoyed.

3 for Casablanca
1 for Berlin

[Edu]

Another one pretty easy for me.

3 for Rome
1 for Lima

[Edu]

3 for Phnom Penh
1 for Moscow

[Edu]

Haven't been to New Delhi, but I can't imagine an indian city where I would like to live.

I've been to Jordan in January and Amman was the low point of the trip, the city is extremely ugly.

On the other hand Bogotá was nice and St Petersburg is one of my favorite cities so this one is again easy.

1 for Bogotá

Sorry for Cape Town (which I liked very much), but this is also a no contest for me

3 for Buenos Aires (best city in the world I might add )
1 for Vienna

Edu will correct me, I'm sure, but it's more "Fair winds" than "Good air".

Yeah, I think Fair Winds is the accepted translation. Of course I had to look up in Wikipedia why the city was named like that, and apparently it is the modified name of some saint from Cagliari
Though I found this "When the Aragonese conquered Cagliari, Sardinia from the Pisans in 1324, they established their headquarters on top of a hill that overlooked the city. The hill was known to them as Buen Ayre (or "Bonaria" in the local language), as it was free of the foul smell prevalent in the old city (the Castle area), which is adjacent to swampland." So maybe Good Air is not so far off after all.

Lol, yeah, I didn't know why my city was called this way, so sue me

[Edu]

Haven't been to Havana or Taipei.

Obviously Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and Jerusalem is very nice which it's amplified by it's great history. So this is easy.

3 for Jerusalem
1 for Prague

[Edu]

London is great, good that it's getting to the next round easily

3 for Baghdad
1 for London

[Edu]

Never been to Kyoto and Johannesburg is nice, but Santiago and Stockholm are beautiful.

3 for Santiago
1 for Stockholm

[Edu]

Unlike Beijing or Lagos, I've actually been to Dublin and Rio and they are both great cities. No reason not to vote for them. Even though I'm sure Beijing is pretty amazing too.

3 for Dublin
1 for Rio

[Edu]

3 for Kuala Lumpur
1 for Dakar

[Edu]

I didn't like Tel Aviv one bit, unlike the rest of Israel. The city is not the most beautiful but it's not really ugly.
On the other hand I had a good time in Sao Paulo, but the city is pretty f**king horrible.

Istanbul was both great and beautiful, and since I can't decide between the other two cities mentioned above I'll go with Tokyo, which looks interesting enough.

3 for Tokyo
1 for Istanbul

What do you have against Cuzco, Fab? it's a wonderful city.
